Default PT & File length

I'm getting ready to transfer approximately 20 tracks of a live remote recorded on ADATs into my PT Mix system. The program material is about 80 minutes long. Can I just transfer this as one long file (20 tracks), or am I going to run into a file length problem. Is there still a 2 gig limit on PT files? I'm running OS8.6. Thanks

Yes, there is the limit. But ADAT tape is limited to 60min, so you'll have to stop and glue later anyway...

Actually, 80min * 5megs/min = 400megs, so you're not even touching file length limitations anywhere. Even if it's 24bit it's still around 600Megs.


You're fine! Enjoy your session!
